Not your typical lawyer...

We as normal citizens know to well how it is to hire a lawyer for all different reasons and feel so frustrated by the way our cases our handled..You get to meet with your lawyer the first time and then you never see him again you call day after day leaving messages and he is to busy to return your ph...one calls..Well I'm writing this review to let everyone know if you want a lawyer that really cares about you and your family Chris Lefebvre is your man...Chris handled a probate case for me after the death of my father and the last thing I needed was more stress chasing a typical lawyer..Chris did everything for me that he said he was going to do and returned everyone of my phone calls..His dedication to his job working for his clients is second to known..If you need a lawyer he is your guy..

Compassionate, Honest, Great Communication, Hard Worker

Chris handled my case successfully and throughout all my times going to court, he has always put me at ease. Chris always informed me of what to look forward to when going to court and was very honest. There was never a time where i ever walked into court not knowing what would happen, everything he ...told me I was 100% prepared for. He was calm and patient with me and even when I was nervous, when he arrived, I knew that he was there to represent me, so I felt confident. Chris is extremely compassionate, he really worked hard at winning my case. He puts his feet in other people's shoes, as if he was the client, well at least that's how I felt because he always treated me with kindness and respect and made me feel like a close friend, he truly cares. Chris is also very reasonable and very easy to talk to because he is very patient and he gives you his full attention. I would without a doubt recommend Christopher Lefebvre to all my family, friends, or anyone in need of a lawyer they will feel 100% confident putting their trust in.

Family/Visitation

Christopher is wonderful, he is very open and honest and will not hide anything from anyone. He will tell you like it is and does not sugar coat anything! He is very welcoming and makes you feel comfortable with any questions and concerns at hand. I have also gone through his office for a couple of o...ther legal issues that I have had in the past. His fees are very reasonable, and is always willing to give legal advise for the issue on hand.

Thank God for Attorney Lefebvre!

Attorney Lefebvre was recommended to me by an attorney who didn't even know him! However, he had heard of his reputation and expertise and I can attest to both of these, firsthand now. His knowledge, integrity and personal concern were crucial to my case. He always took my calls: Night, day and ev...en on vacation! He gave me hope to hang in there while still painting a realistic picture of what I could expect. He truly digs into previous cases and new case law to stay on the edge of advantage on your case. He's energetic and kind! You will not only have a good lawyer, but quite possibly a friend for life. Joanne

The Right Person

Knowing I would be in the fight of my life when I filed for divorce in December 2012, I chose to retain top dollar representation from Providence overlooking Pawtucket Family Law thinking they may not have the resources to handle a divorce that would undoubtedly a lengthy and relentless battle knowin...g the personality and resources of my then wife. I did approach Pawtucket Family Law during my initial search but unfortunately I did not meet with Chris. With a less than stellar legal representation, unengaged general magistrate and vexatious defendant, it was the perfect storm and after 20 months and an exorbitant amount of legal expenses, the divorce was finalized. Although the divorce was final, the fight would never be so I began to seek new representation which is when I returned to Pawtucket Family Law and met Chris. During my search I had spoken to several other lawyers but Chris was different from all the others. He genuinely showed interest in my situation and went above and beyond getting familiar with my divorce and my situation. Given what I was accustomed to, uninterested layers and outrageous legal fees, it was a relief to find an attorney who expressed a genuine interest and was realistic and reasonable with the cost to address existing or new issues. Regardless of the time or day, Chris is responsive and tells it how it is. You may not always like what you hear but he doesn't hold back any punches and explains his reasoning. Would I recommend Chris? I have and will always without hesitation. Will I continue to seek his counsel with unfortunately but undoubtedly many more years of legal woes ahead? Absolutely. The only advice I can provide someone considering Chris is to be straight forward, upfront, forthcoming, and honest with him and your experience will be a positive and even in some respect, an enjoyable one. I have been through a lot that many cannot or could not believe so having found the right attorney has made a world of difference. Having someone who is willing to fight for you and believe you is extremely important and you will find that with Chris. Divorce can be wicked and stressful enough, having the right person beside you and representing you is critical. Chris is that person.
